This is the very first time i have used Zinc Oxide. overall i was impressed at how well it mixed into the liquids for my sunscreen. and it wasnt as dusty as i thought it would be :) my mixture didnt comeout completly smooth and there was still a glopy consitiancy not really sure if all zinc oxide is like that or not. shipping sucked it is way too much but that really doesnt have anything to do with the product. anyway product worked ok in the mixture not really sure how well of a sunblock it will be but lets hope its a good one :)
